Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged around a generous landing. The principal suite, facing the front, enjoys peaceful green views and benefits from a contemporary ensuite.

The family bathroom, finished in soft tones, includes a rainfall shower, Duravit fittings and clean-lined tiling.

Externally
The rear garden is a private, established space designed to capture the sun from morning through to evening. A central lawn is edged by sculptural planting, mature trees and specimen shrubs, with a timber-decked terrace outside the garden room forming a natural entertaining zone. A purpose-built greenhouse and potting area sit alongside a detached brick-built garage and gravel driveway with private gate. A bespoke timber shed and bin store are tucked unobtrusively to the side.
The front garden, framed by clipped hedging and specimen planting, offers an elegant first impression while maintaining privacy. The overall setting is green, quiet and well connected—close to the heart of Wylam and within easy reach of Newcastle, Hexham and the wider Tyne Valley.
